Beyonce in legal battle with Etsy over ‘Feyonce’ mugs

Beyoncé has waged war against bosses of arts and craft website Etsy.com over the sale of handmade goods which allegedly infringe her brand.

The singer’s attorney has threatened legal action against Etsy bosses over a seller who is offering up mugs emblazoned with a diamond band and the word ‘Feyoncé,’ a play on ‘fiancé’ and a purported reference to Beyoncé’s song Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).

Editors at TMZ.com report Beyoncé’s team fired off a letter to the company threatening legal action over the mugs, prompting bosses to remove the seller’s goods from the trading portal.

However, the website still lists a variety of Feyoncé goods from other sellers, including T-shirts, glasses and cards.
